< Deuteronomy 1 >

1 In this book is written what Moses/I said to the Israeli people. He/I told them these things when they/we were in the desert, on the east side of the Jordan [River]. They/We had set up our tents near [a place named] Suph, between Paran [town on the one side of the river] and Tophel, Laban, Hazeroth, and Dizahab [towns on the other side of the river].
Estas são as palavras que Moysés fallou a todo o Israel d'áquem do Jordão, no deserto, na planicie defronte do Mar de Suph, entre Paran e Tophel, e Laban, e Hazeroth, e Dizahab.
2 To walk from Sinai [Mountain] to the Kadesh-Barnea [oasis], people usually travel for only eleven days, going by way of the hilly area named Edom.
Onze jornadas ha, desde Horeb, caminho da montanha de Seir, até Cades-barnea.
3 Forty years after (the Israelis/we) left Egypt, in the middle of January, Moses/I told the Israeli people everything that Yahweh had commanded him/me to tell them.
E succedeu que, no anno quadragesimo, no mez undecimo, no primeiro dia do mez, Moysés fallou aos filhos de Israel, conforme a tudo o que o Senhor lhe mandara ácerca d'elles,
4 This was after they/we had defeated Sihon, the king of the Amor people-group, who lived in Heshbon [city], and Og, the king of the Bashan [region] who lived in Ashtaroth and Edrei [towns].
Depois que feriu a Sehon, rei dos amorrheos, que habitava em Hesbon, e a Og, rei de Basan, que habitava em Astaroth, em Edrei.
5 Moses/I told them these things while the people were in the Moab region, on the east side of the Jordan [River]. He/I (explained to them/enabled them to understand) God’s laws. This is what he/I said to them:
D'áquem do Jordão, na terra de Moab, começou Moysés a declarar esta lei, dizendo:
6 “Yahweh our God said to us when we were at Sinai [Mountain], ‘You have stayed for a very long time at [the bottom of] this mountain.
O Senhor nosso Deus nos fallou em Horeb, dizendo: Assás haveis estado n'este monte.
7 So now continue traveling. Go to the hilly area where the Amor people-group lives and to the nearby areas—to the Jordan [River] Valley, to the hilly region, to the western (foothills/hills at the bottom of the mountains), to the desert area to the south, to the [Mediterranean] Seacoast, to all of Canaan land, to the Lebanon [Mountains], and [northeast] to the great Euphrates River.
Virae-vos, e parti-vos, e ide á montanha dos amorrheos, e a todos os seus visinhos, á planicie, e á montanha, e ao valle, e ao sul, e á ribeira do mar; á terra dos cananeos, e ao Libano, até ao grande rio, o rio Euphrates.
8 Note that I will give that land to you. I, Yahweh, promised to your ancestors Abraham and Isaac and Jacob that I would give it to them and to their descendants. So now go and occupy it.’”
Vêdes aqui esta terra vol-a dei diante de vós: entrae e possui a terra que o Senhor jurou a vossos paes, Abrahão, Isaac, e Jacob, que a daria a elles e á sua semente depois d'elles.
9 Moses/I also said to the people, “When [we were still at Sinai Mountain], I told your ancestors ‘It is a very big burden/responsibility for me to govern all of you. So I cannot do it by myself.
E no mesmo tempo eu vos fallei, dizendo: Eu não poderei levar-vos só.
10 Yahweh our God has caused us Israelis to now become as numerous as the stars in the sky.
O Senhor vosso Deus já vos tem multiplicado: e eis-que já hoje em multidão sois como as estrellas dos céus.
11 And I hope/desire that Yahweh, the God whom our ancestors [worshiped], will cause us to become 1,000 times as numerous as we are now and that he will bless us just like he promised to do.
O Senhor Deus de vossos paes vos augmente, como sois, ainda mil vezes mais: e vos abençoe, como vos tem fallado.
12 But I certainly cannot [RHQ] (solve/deal with) all of your complaints/problems.
Como supportaria eu só as vossas molestias, e as vossas cargas, e as vossas differenças?
13 So choose some men from your tribes who are wise and who have good sense and who are respected. Then I will appoint them to be your leaders.’
Tomae-vos homens sabios e entendidos, experimentados entre as vossas tribus, para que os ponha por vossas cabeças.
14 Your ancestors replied, ‘What you have suggested is good for us to do.’
Então vós me respondestes, e dissestes: Bom é de fazer a palavra que tens fallado.
15 So I took the wise and respected men [that your ancestors chose] from your tribes, and I appointed them to be your leaders. I appointed some to (rule/have authority) over 1,000 people, some to have authority over 100 people, some to have authority over 50 people, and some to have authority over ten people. I also appointed other officers from throughout your tribes.
Tomei pois os cabeças de vossas tribus, homens sabios e experimentados, e os tenho posto por cabeças sobre vós, por capitães de milhares, e por capitães de cem, e por capitães de cincoenta, e por capitães de dez, e por governadores das vossas tribus
16 I instructed/told your leaders, ‘Listen to the disputes that occur among your people. Judge each dispute, including disputes between close relatives and quarrels between your people and people from other countries who live among you.
E no mesmo tempo mandei a vossos juizes, dizendo: Ouvi a causa entre vossos irmãos, e julgae justamente entre o homem e seu irmão, e entre o estrangeiro que está com elle.
17 You must (be impartial/not favor one person more than another); you must treat poor people and important people equally. You must not worry about what anyone will think [about how you decide matters], because you will decide matters as God [wants you to]. If any quarrel/dispute is very difficult and you are unable to decide it, bring it to me, and I will decide.’
Não attentareis para pessoa alguma em juizo, ouvireis assim o pequeno como o grande: não temereis a face de ninguem, porque o juizo é de Deus; porém a causa que vos fôr difficil fareis vir a mim, e eu a ouvirei.
18 At that time I also told you other things that you should do.”
Assim n'aquelle tempo vos ordenei todas as coisas que havieis de fazer.
19 “Then, just like Yahweh our God commanded us, we left Sinai [Mountain] and went through that huge desert that was very (dangerous/difficult to travel through), on the road to the hilly area where the Amor people-group live. We arrived at Kadesh-Barnea.
Então partimos de Horeb, e caminhámos por todo aquelle grande e tremendo deserto que vistes, pelo caminho das montanhas dos amorrheos, como o Senhor nosso Deus nos ordenara: e chegámos a Cades-barnea.
20 I said to your ancestors, ‘We have now come to the hilly area where the Amor people-group live. This is part of the area that Yahweh our God, the one whom our ancestors [worshiped], is giving to us.
Então eu vos disse: Chegados sois ás montanhas dos amorrheos, que o Senhor nosso Deus nos dará.
21 Note that Yahweh our God is giving this land to us. So go and occupy it as he commanded. Do not be (at all/even a little bit) afraid.’
Eis aqui o Senhor teu Deus te deu esta terra diante de ti: sobe, possue-a, como te fallou o Senhor Deus de teus paes: não temas, e não te assustes.
22 But all of your ancestors came to me and said, ‘Before we go, we should [first] send some men there to explore the land, in order that they can return and tell us which will be the best road to go there and what kind of towns are there.’
Então todos vós vos chegastes a mim, e dissestes: Mandemos homens adiante de nós, para que nos espiem a terra, e nos dêem resposta, por que caminho devemos subir a ella, e a que cidades devemos ir.
23 I thought that it would be good to do that, so I chose twelve men, one man from each tribe.
Pareceu-me pois bem este negocio: de sorte que de vós tomei doze homens, de cada tribu um homem.
24 They went up into the hilly area as far as Eshcol Valley, and they explored all that area.
E foram-se, e subiram á montanha, e vieram até ao valle de Escol, e o espiaram.
25 They picked some of the fruit that they found there and brought it to us. They reported that the land that Yahweh our God was giving to us is very good/fertile.”
E tomaram do fructo da terra nas suas mãos, e nol-o trouxeram, e nos tornaram a dar resposta, e disseram: Boa é a terra que nos dá o Senhor nosso Deus.
26 “But your ancestors refused to go [and conquer that land]. They rebelled against what Yahweh our God had commanded them to do, and they would not go into that land.
Porém vós não quizestes subir: mas fostes rebeldes ao mandado do Senhor nosso Deus.
27 Your ancestors [stayed] in their tents and complained saying ‘Yahweh hates us. So he has brought us here from Egypt just to allow the Amor people-group to destroy us.
E murmurastes nas vossas tendas, e dissestes: Porquanto o Senhor nos aborrece, nos tirou da terra do Egypto para nos entregar nas mãos dos amorrheos, para destruir-nos.
28 (Why should we go there?/We do not want to go there.) [RHQ] The men whom we sent there have caused us to become very discouraged/afraid. They have told us that the people there are much stronger and taller than we are and that there are extremely high [HYP] walls around their towns. Also they reported that they saw [giants there that are] descendants of Anak.’
Para onde subiremos? nossos irmãos fizeram com que se derretesse o nosso coração, dizendo: Maior e mais alto é este povo do que nós, as cidades são grandes e fortificadas até aos céus; e tambem vimos ali filhos dos gigantes.
29 Then I said to your ancestors, ‘Do not be afraid (at all/even a little bit) [DOU] of those people!
Então eu vos disse: Não vos espanteis, nem os temaes.
30 Yahweh our God will go ahead of you, and he will fight for you, just like you saw him do for you in Egypt
O Senhor vosso Deus que vae adiante de vós, elle por vós pelejará, conforme a tudo o que fez comvosco, diante de vossos olhos, no Egypto;
31 and in the desert. You saw how he brought you safely here, like a man would carry his son. [SIM]’
Como tambem no deserto, onde viste que o Senhor teu Deus n'elle te levou, como um homem leva seu filho, por todo o caminho que andastes, até chegardes a este logar.
32 [I reminded them that] he always went ahead of them while they traveled [in the desert]. He directed them by [a pillar of] fire during the night and a [pillar of] cloud during the day. He showed them places to set up their tents. But in spite of what I said, your ancestors would not trust Yahweh our God.
Mas nem por isso crestes ao Senhor vosso Deus,
Que foi adiante de vós por todo o caminho, para vos achar o logar onde vós deverieis acampar: de noite no fogo, para vos mostrar o caminho por onde havieis de andar, e de dia na nuvem.
34 Yahweh heard what they said, and he became angry. He solemnly declared,
Ouvindo pois o Senhor a voz das vossas palavras, indignou-se, e jurou, dizendo:
35 ‘Caleb, the son of Jephunneh, will enter the land. He has obeyed me completely. So I will give to him and to his descendants [some of] the land that he explored. He is the only one of all you people who will enter that land. None of these evil people will ever see that good land which I solemnly promised to give to your ancestors.’
Nenhum dos homens d'esta maligna geração verá esta boa terra que jurei de dar a vossos paes,
Salvo Caleb, filho de Jefoné; elle a verá, e a terra que pisou darei a elle e a seus filhos: porquanto perseverou em seguir ao Senhor.
37 But because of [what] your ancestors [did], Yahweh was also angry with me. He said to me, ‘You also will not enter that land.
Tambem o Senhor se indignou contra mim por causa de vós, dizendo: Tambem tu lá não entrarás.
38 Joshua, the son of Nun, who is your helper, will enter it. Encourage him, because he is the one who will enable you Israeli people to occupy that land.’
Josué, filho de Nun, que está em pé diante de ti, elle ali entrará: esforça-o, porque elle a fará herdar a Israel.
39 Then Yahweh said to all of us, ‘You said that your children would be captured by your enemies. Because they are very young, they do not yet know what is good and what is evil. But they are the ones to whom I will give that land, and they will enter it and occupy it.
E vossos meninos, de que dissestes: Por presa serão: e vossos filhos, que hoje nem bem nem mal sabem, elles ali entrarão, e a elles, a darei, e elles a possuirão.
40 But as for you, turn around and go back into the desert, toward the (Red Sea/Gulf of Aqaba).’
Porém vós virae-vos, e parti para o deserto, pelo caminho do Mar Vermelho.
41 Then your ancestors replied, ‘We have sinned; we have disobeyed Yahweh. So we will go and attack [the people who live in] that land, just like Yahweh our God commanded us to do.’ And each of their men put on his weapons, and they thought that it would be easy to invade the hilly region.
Então respondestes, e me dissestes: Peccámos contra o Senhor: nós subiremos e pelejaremos, conforme a tudo o que nos ordenou o Senhor nosso Deus: e armastes-vos pois vós, cada um dos seus instrumentos de guerra, e estivestes prestes para subir á montanha.
42 But Yahweh said to me, ‘Tell them, “Do not go up there and attack those people, because I will not go with you. If you go, your enemies will defeat you.”’
E disse-me o Senhor: Dize-lhes: Não subaes nem pelejeis, pois não estou no meio de vós; para que não sejaes feridos diante de vossos inimigos.
43 So I told that to your ancestors, but they would not heed what I said. They [again] rebelled against what Yahweh commanded them to do. Their soldiers proudly/arrogantly marched up into that hilly region.
Porém, fallando-vos eu, não ouvistes: antes fostes rebeldes ao mandado do Senhor, e vos ensoberbecestes, e subistes á montanha.
44 Then the men of the Amor people-group who lived in that region came out [of their towns] and attacked those soldiers. They pursued your ancestors’ soldiers like [a swarm of] bees pursues people, and they pursued them [south] from the Edom area and defeated them at Hormah [city].
E os amorrheos, que habitavam n'aquella montanha, vos sairam ao encontro; e perseguiram-vos como fazem as abelhas, e vos derrotaram desde Seir até Horma.
45 So your ancestors went back [to Kadesh-Barnea] and cried out to request Yahweh [to help them], but he did not heed them. He did not pay any attention to them [DOU].
Tornando pois vós, e chorando perante o Senhor, o Senhor não ouviu a vossa voz, nem vos escutou.
46 So we stayed there at Kadesh-Barnea for a long time.”
Assim em Cades estivestes muitos dias, segundo os dias que ali estivestes.
